Real Conversations About Money
Join us throughout 2025 and 2026 for practical workshops where Australian business owners share what actually works. No sales pitches. Just honest talks about managing cash flow in the real world.
Upcoming Sessions
We host quarterly workshops at our Salamander Bay location. Each one runs about two hours. Coffee's included, and you'll meet other folks dealing with the same challenges.
Winter Planning Workshop
How to forecast your next six months without a crystal ball. We'll walk through actual budgets and talk about what to do when things don't go as planned.
End of Year Review
Look back at 2025 before the holiday rush hits. Figure out what worked, what didn't, and how to set yourself up better for 2026.
Cash Flow Basics
Start the year right with a fresh look at your numbers. Simple systems that don't require fancy software or an accounting degree.
Growth Without Stress
Expanding your business sounds great until you realize your cash is tied up. We'll discuss ways to grow steadily without running out of money halfway through.
Space is limited to 15 people per session. Registration opens three months before each workshop.
Get On The List
Meet Freya Ashworth
Workshop Facilitator
Freya's been running workshops since 2019. She spent fifteen years in the trenches with small manufacturing businesses before moving to consulting. Her sessions feel more like kitchen table conversations than lectures.
What people appreciate most is her honesty. She'll tell you when something's a bad idea. And she's quick to admit when she doesn't know the answer—though she usually knows someone who does.
Between workshops, you'll find her walking the beach near Salamander Bay or tinkering with her collection of vintage calculators. She drinks too much tea and has strong opinions about spreadsheet organization.
What Actually Happens
Arrival and Setup
Grab a coffee, find a seat. We keep things informal. Some folks bring their laptops, others prefer notebooks. Both work fine.
Group Discussion
Freya introduces the topic, then we open it up. People share what's working for them. Sometimes the best insights come from the person sitting next to you.
Working Session
Time to apply what we just talked about. Bring your own numbers if you want. Or work through the examples we provide. Freya walks around answering questions.
Wrap Up
Quick recap and next steps. People often stick around afterwards to chat. Some of the best connections happen over lukewarm coffee after the official session ends.
From Previous Sessions
Collaborative Learning
Our autumn 2024 session focused on seasonal cash flow patterns. Participants from retail, hospitality, and service businesses compared notes on managing quiet periods.
Practical Application
During working sessions, everyone tackles their own situation. Some people leave with complete action plans. Others just get clarity on their next step. Both count as progress.
